John Cabot claimed parts of North America for England during his 1497 voyage, specifically areas along the coast of Newfoundland. He is often credited with being one of the first Europeans to explore the North American mainland since the Vikings. His expedition was aimed at finding a Northwest Passage to Asia, but instead, he laid the groundwork for later English claims in North America.
